1. Commitment to Personalised ServiceEach file is managed by one paralegal responsible for the loan, where the borrower is domiciled, from start to finish. This means we can fulfil vital local operational support (e.g. the urgent collection of documents) and a seamless process for cross-border transactions.

2. We Think Nationally but Act LocallyOur national business model gives you the best of many worlds.

It provides national consistency for fees, processes, documentation, technology interface and online reporting.

It provides an end-to-end service solution with full operational capabilities.

It provides business continuity (with no time zone limitations) in the event that one office in unable to perform services due to force majeure events. For example, with the 2012 Queensland floods, vital services, such as document preparation and settlement co-ordination were diverted to other states.
